Slow Cooker Enchilada Meatballs
I went a little meatball crazy! You may have seen several of my recipes here on the blog that I have been testing out. My husband actually asks me if we could take a break from them. He has been eating them for dinner and taking leftover for lunch. I had so many yummy ideas and had to try them all out for you. I love slow cooker meatballs because they work perfectly for appetizers or you can easily make it a dinner. With the Holidays and the Superbowl coming up they are perfect.

Can I use fresh homemade meatballs instead of frozen?
Yes homemade meatballs can be used for this recipe. I would either cook them in the oven before hand or just carefully place them in a single layer so they all don’t stick together.
